I think I understand what you're getting at and I'm pretty sure you misunderstand how the $30/person was arrived at.
They took the $3 million the SG budget says the new city would pay to the sheriff for extra police protection (to make up for the lost protection of BRPD no longer going into SG when the sheriff requests assistance from BRPD) and divided by 100,000 residents of SG.
So that $30/person is the "extra" allocation for police protection over and above what SG (and BR) residents are currently paying for the sheriff in existing taxes.
At least that's how I interpret how the $30/person was derived.
